Description
This
is
a
letter
from
James
Graham
to his
sister
,
Agnes
Graham
,
dated
December
28
,
1864
.
James
Graham
writes
that he
is
still
healthy
, and that he
is
waiting
for a
shipment
from his
family
. He
mentions
that he was on
picket
duty
on
Christmas
day
, and that he and the
other
privates
received
nothing
extra
, but that the
officers
went
on a
spree
and
got
"
pretty
tight.
" He
says
that there has been
much
firing
of
cannons
that
day
toward
Petersburg
,
Virginia
. He
writes
that there has been
news
in
one
of the
newspapers
, The
Messenger
, that
Dutch
Gap
was
cut
through
, but he
is
doubtful
that has
occurred
. He
speculates
about
when
he
is
to be
paid
,
explaining
that
soldiers
generally
expect
to be
paid
every
two
months
. He has
heard
that
three
thousand
more
soldiers
may
be
called
up
to
serve
and that the
war
will
soon
be
over
.
Graham
,
however
,
doubts
that this
is
true
. He has also
heard
a
rumor
that "
Jeff
"
Davis
is
dead
but he
doesn't
believe
it
.
